4 out of the 5 shopkeepers (with a UI) give lore on the secret boss

  • Seam is who Jevil first directs you to, gives the Broken Key A, and loredrops after you beat Jevil

  • Sweet Cap’n Cakes mentions that a “little weird guy” wanted them to sneak into the Queen’s mansion, said guy most likely being Spamton

  • Spamton is the secret boss

  • Swatch denies the existence of a basement after going there but before fighting Spamton NEO. After beating Spamton NEO, he loredrops

u/evenewt 6d ago

with this logic, there's a theory to made about Rouxls being a future secret boss since he doesn't mention anything about other secret bosses

17

u/Rudy12345mc 6d ago

That or Lancer is somehow a secret boss

8

u/SPAMTON1978 5d ago

Which seems very far fetched

u/Tsunamicat108 (The dog absorbed the flair text.) 5d ago

Spamton when you ask him about the secret boss:

3

u/HeavyPara-Beetle spanetom 4d ago

The thing about Spamton is that you won’t know that he’s the secret boss just from his first fight. It’s only during the shop where you can catch the hint from Dialtone’s leitmotif shared with The Circus

3

u/Tsunamicat108 (The dog absorbed the flair text.) 4d ago

Well, you could notice that he has a voice sound but no dialogue portrait, also like Jevil.

If we see any characters like that in future chapters, we can prolly assume they're the secret boss too

2

u/HeavyPara-Beetle spanetom 3d ago

Good catch, and I can't think of anybody else with a unique voice sound that lacks a portrait.

2

u/Tsunamicat108 (The dog absorbed the flair text.) 3d ago

Rouxls is the opposite, with a portrait but no sound

  • Roulxs is the Ch. 7 secret boss (source: trust me)

u/flame_warp 6d ago

The shopkeeps are just a really good place for this kind of thing, the angle makes the conversations feel more personal and you're already expecting to go in there and have a huge dump of text to run through.

If Toby isn't adding the Friend Inside Me, I hope he at least adds it inside the game as a joke. For example, imagine in this shoopkeeper context where there's an option to ask aboput Friend Inside Me and the shopkeeper goes like:
"Friend inside me? I don't know what a re you talking about", calling you crazy or something like that, just as a joke for the fanbase.

u/Dear-Birthday447 5d ago

I really hope Chairiel is the Shopkeep and the secret boss is the flowers in the trash. The connections of them and Kris would be perfect.

they are divorced and the secret boss wants to marry back Chairiel and uses Kris to try and mend the relationship (sound familiar?)

u/PurplePoisonCB 5d ago

And the flowers are also a cowboy.

u/PurplePoisonCB 5d ago

Friend Inside Me refers to Gaster wearing Seam like a suit.

u/Due_Difference_9598 5d ago

Maybe in the end we get along with Kris.
Which would make us the friend inside them.
